The chair looks exactly like that shown in the photo. It is a beautiful and artistic piece, and is a definite conversation starter. However, the cushioning of this chair is thin and uncomfortable. The fabric is of very cheap quality and it has been stitched poorly. This chair is not worth the price at which it is being sold; I would not pay any more than $60 for something like this. It is an aesthetically-pleasing piece, but nothing beyond that is worth complimenting.
